Summary
Michel Huglo's collection 'Chant grégorien et musique médiévale' offers a comprehensive exploration of Gregorian chant and its evolution, focusing on monophonic and polyphonic additions to the medieval repertoire. The study delves into significant musical works, including the Kyrie, introit tropes from St-Gall, an elegy for William the Conqueror (d. 1087), versus by Venantius Fortunatus for the cathedral of Paris, liturgical dramas from Fleury, early organum, the Mass of Tournai, and a Requiem by Eustache Du Caurroy. This collection represents the second phase of Huglo's research, providing valuable insights into the development and significance of medieval music within the context of UNESCO World Heritage Sites like Notre-Dame Cathedral in Tournai.
